ABOUT: Fine art photographer Barbara Ery’s collection of 30 photo transfers highlights buildings including the Howard Vernon Motel, The Plaza Theatre, and the Kress Building, and iconic signs at Johnson’s Diner, McNamara Pontiac, and Merita Bread. The exhibit was originally scheduled to run June 5 through August 8, 2010.
Ery, photographer and emerging artist, enjoys shooting and working directly with film. Ery crafts original photo transfers using the Polaroid Transfer Process, developing images on watercolor paper using varying exposure times, temperatures, colors, and film. For this exhibit, she produced the one-of-a-kind photo transfers of familiar Orlando landmarks using a camera, enlarger, slide printer, and Polaroid film to create a nostalgic effect reminiscent of browsing through an heirloom photo album. Ery believes each photo transfer has a dreamy, impressionist quality that showcases the special method of the Polaroid Transfer Process.
